The Girl and the Gold-Haired Rabbit

[Six Sin]

Kryll nodded, smiling sadly at the girl sitting across from him. He'd been like that, once. Before that experiment. After that, though, he'd always been able to get rid of his fear at the point of a blaster. That was when he decided he was going to help. He said, "If you trust me, you've way braver than me. It takes a long, long time for me to trust anybody. I can't sleep on those transports, because I'm always afraid the person next to me will make sure I don't wake up," he sighed, drank more coffee, and put it back down, "I only carry one knife, since I can't trust anybody not to steal em off me and give me a sliced throat in return. You haven't seen it, but I wear an armored mask so people can't see or talk to me."

He took another sip of his coffee, finishing it, and pulled out one of his guns. A smallish one, because it didn't look like Sky could handle the recoil from something larger. He pushed it across the table, and said, "Keep that with you, and you have no reason to fear anything that's not a small army."

"thanks. but i dont know how to use one" she said looking at the gun for a moment then looked back at him.

 

[Six Sin]

Kryll half-smiled, and held out his hands towards Sky, and answered, "That's fine. Even if you don't know how to use it, it gives the appearance of being ready. People just hanging around won't come and hassle you anymore. Only the most pissed-off or well-armed person won't back the hell off if you draw a gun. It's a psychological thing, a sort of... security blanket, I guess."

" oh.. ok thanks. " she said smiling " im sure this will help allot.. people tend to not leave me alone at times" he added

 

[Six Sin]

Kryll nodded, a little bit upset by the fact that this pretty, if small, girl was walking around without knowing how to shoot. He sighed, and then shook his head again, saying, "You really should know how to shoot. Too pretty to die, or is the gutter scum you run into on these planets just really nice?"

Sky blushed softly almost the shade of her eyes " well maybe you could teach me how?" she asked with a smile.. " and no actly the ones who bother me are never nice.."

 

[Six Sin]

Kryll smiled back, and put his hand on the table, with his significantly larger gun in it. He took Sky's hand, and silently wrapped it around the oversized handle and trigger well, keeping his hand there. Then he replied softly, almost whispering to her, "First lesson... keep the end with the hole in it far away from yourself. And me. I don't like getting blasted."

Sky blinked " wow its kinda heavy" she said looking at the gun then at him for a moment.

 

[Six Sin]

Kryll nodded at her slightly, half-smiling and looking back at her. He replied, "That's why I gave you the smaller gun. This one was made for me to shoot. Matched to my strength and whatnot. The holdout is just your typical holdout. You'll be able to handle it just fine before we finish these lessons."

Still holding Sky's hand, Kryll lifted the gun, and her hand with it, and continued, "This gun gives more power and range, but it's way heavier. Yours is pretty powerful, but you can only aim well from a few feet away."

" oh thats cool" Sky said looking back at the gun for a moment.

 

[Six Sin]

Putting down the big gun, Kryll reached for the gun he'd offered to Sky. Like before, he wrapped her hand around the gun, keeping his hand on hers. He smiled at her, and asked, "Now how much lighter does that feel?"

[member="Kryll Heartseeker"]

" thats much better" she said " it actly feels normal even though iv never held one before"

 

[Six Sin]

Kryll nodded, considering whether it was strictly necessary to keep holding her hand when she had such a good grip on the gun. He decided he'd ask her, "Do you want me to keep my hand there, or should I let you hold it yourself?"

[member="Sky"]

 

[Seth Harkness]

" you can let go if you want to" she said with a small laugh

[member="Kryll Heartseeker"]

 

[Six Sin]

Kryll let go, a tiny bit disappointed, and then realized that a cafe was not the best place to teach the cute blue-haired girl to shoot. He looked back over at Sky, and smiled, "You look pretty cute with that gun in your hand, but maybe we should try this lesson somewhere that doesn't have an angry dude in an apron."

"thanks and good idea don't want to hurt anyone" she said smiling

 

[Six Sin]

Kryll flashed Sky a smile, and held out an arm. It was just a cute little gesture he'd seen in a holomovie once, but it seemed like something a gentleman would do. He replied, "Well, then. Let's find ourselves a practice range."

With his other hand, Kryll threw a credit chit in the general direction of the front bar. His careless throw had actually caused the hard edge to lodge itself in the wooden surface. He cringed slightly, and looked back down at Sky, shrugging, "Never underestimate the power of a complete accident. Funny things happen."

Sky smiled as she took his arm " good throw... lets go before we get yelled at" she said laughing softly

 

[Six Sin]

Kryll smiled back, and chuckled along with Sky. It really was rather ridiculous that he couldn't control his own strength. But, she didn't seem to mind, and he wasn't about to tell her that she should. He nodded, and stepped towards the door. He said, "Let's go to a park or something. Wide open spaces to practice shooting, and plenty of pretty paths to walk around. No rush, after all."

" sounds good to me" she said smiling as she still held onto his arm
